My painting OLD RED BARN

And Cats too, but this one is about dogs.

Excuse the terrible lighting (it’s dark out), but I’ve started work on a new little series ❤️ These are pen & ink drawings on a watercolour background. This is No.1 - a Carolina Wren #watercolours #penandink #birdart 🪶

@jimchalmers.bsky.social Just do it Jim instead of coming up with schemes to hurt the vulnerable with your tax grab. Go after the tax dodging wealth hoarders, they're Australia's biggest welfare recipients...remember JobKeeper Gerry Harvey and Qantas? #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Marianne Stokes (Austrian, 1855–1927). A Parting (1885, oil on canvas).

As someone who grew up in a hostile household, there’s no greater joy than seeing my cats relaxed and stress free in a space that I’ve cultivated for us all. And knowing I’m (arguably) solely responsible for providing that comfort, brings me even more joy 🙂

I’m just supposed to leave this and go to work?!?! Why are you making me do this?? 🥺

A watercolour painting of an oystercatcher in the grass. I gifted this to a friend last year, oystercatchers are her fav birds ❤️ #watercolours #birdart 🪶

Morning.

Albanese the inhumane. Australia, May I introduce you to a modern day #robodebt Make no mistake, this will be causing many, many deaths, including self death. #auspol

@albomp.bsky.social @jimchalmers.bsky.social @australianlabor.bsky.social My Aged Care Stay At Home = SUFFER AT HOME, designed to erode & claw back $, a Labor speciality starting with co-payments & this algorithm tool. Next up axing of domestic services? #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

@australianlabor.bsky.social @jimchalmers.bsky.social Pre Nov 2025 My Aged Care selfish hoarders rolling over 1,000's of $ yearly instead of using it as intended while new people wait 9 months + for funding as there's no $ in the kitty. #Labor asleep at the wheel again. Use it or lose it! #auspol

We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.

More right wing neoliberal policies from @australianlabor.bsky.social They are Australia's favourite centre right party They can't claim to clean left anymore That period is over @albomp.bsky.social and team are working for large corporate interests not those of the poorest Australians

@albomp.bsky.social @jimchalmers.bsky.social @australianlabor.bsky.social Labor has created this problem for Pensioners with the new Co-payments under #MyAgedCare Some paying up to $500 a month in co-payments & fees (an absolute disgrace) at a time when the cost of living is skyhigh. #auspol

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes. Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted. Beautiful and devastating all at once.

Hello #InsectThursday

Goodnight everyone 💞. Dream of a better world ☮️. I know that's not easy right now. #Goodnighteveryone #KindnessMatters #WeMissYouRex #Dogsofbluesky #LoveYouRex #SweetDreamsSpike

Let's have a cute kitten for Tuna Tuesday! Baby Barney! #cats #kittens #TunaTuesday #pets

When we cheer nurses receiving big pay rises, we shouldn't be surprised when #health insurance is jacked up. At least our newly minted #nurses will be in a better position to cope with the inflated cost of living than many of us. The lucky country 🙄 (for some). #auspol www.afr.com/companies/he...

Apparently a couple of women in my 97 yr old dad’s aged care facility have the hots for him. He’s still got it

The GOP is entering the “finding out” phase of gerrymandering. By the same metric, Dems got almost 40% of the vote in Utah and currently hold zero congressional seats due to gerrymandering

Bill Clinton fighting back. I like it.

I had hoped that by my 80s Australia would have progressed to a free and open country concerned for the welfare of her citizens Instead we have creeping fascism and foreign interference I weep for what could have been #auspol

@jimchalmers.bsky.social @albomp.bsky.social Rid us of negative gearing, capital gains tax discount, force the wealthy to pay their fair share of tax, cut the corporate handouts aka 'business welfare' (this also applies to Mr 'JobKeeper' Gerry Harvey). #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Money doesn't buy happiness; it buys freedom. And if freedom doesn't make you happy, you're just a fucking asshole.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

I’ve always loved old cookbooks, but discovering the oldest cookbook, Apicius, opened my eyes to how Ancient Romans cooked, and displayed status. Discover the secrets that still inspire chefs. #OldestCookbooks, #FoodHistory #FoodCulture #FoodHeritage, #Apicius foodculturebites.com/apicius-the-...
